The Dependent Chip Model (DCM) is proposed as an alternative to the Independent Chip Model (ICM) usually employed in poker tournament negotiations. DCM constitutes a recursive exploration of a multiplayer Texas hold'em poker game tree tracking. The DCM procedure considers all players as having exactly the same playing skills and probabilities to win a single poker hand, but submitted to their stacks in order to survive along the successive hands. So, the final differences among bestowed prizes arise purely from the initial chip amounts, hence the name of this new proposed procedure. By considering DCM, the first podium positions usually collect more money than the amount granted by ICM. Conversely, the last podium positions receive less money than the quantities proposed by ICM. The differences among both methods sometimes lead to take distinct actions in tournaments. This can lead to very important monetary implications for professional players.
